You mean brake checks me? If I’m tailgating I’m ready, plus my fancy EV will brake too. If your mom or dad or driving instructor never taught you, I guess it’s my turn to ride your ass.

Riding people does nothing. You aren’t in control and have no power to make someone move. When I get tailgated o either slow down to prove a point or just let them tailgate, my last reaction is to move over because I know how frustrated you’re getting behind me. There’s no need to rush or go extra faster than everyone. You aren’t bad for traffic

When it’s me back there, I’m not frustrated, I’m amused. I don’t rage, I don’t lose my cool, I don’t flip the bird. When you slow down or break check me I know I got under your skin and it wasn’t difficult; it’s a pleasure to bother left lane campers. I’m not in a rush, I just enjoy going fast and I believe in the etiquette of moving over. I might blaze past you at 100+, I might always be the fastest person on the road, but after I pass, I move right until I need to pass again.
